Royals reportedly acquire Ben Zobrist from Athletics

The Kansas City Royals are going all in this season. Just a couple days after landing Johnny Cueto, the defending American League champs have picked up super utility man Ben Zobrist in a three-player deal that should help the team maintain its standing atop the American League Central.

Left-hander Sean Manaea and right-hander Aaron Brooks going to #Athletics for Zobrist, per @jcrasnick and @JonHeymanCBS.

Zobrist, 34, is a two-time All-Star that’s seen as one of the most flexible players in the game.
